    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Lymph protein flux analyses reveal capillary walls have two pore sizes, likely transendothelial channels. These channels may also carry a positive charge, influencing protein transport in intestinal and lung capillaries.

    Area of Science:

    • Physiology
    • Biophysics
    • Cell Biology

    Background:

    • Capillary walls regulate substance exchange between blood and tissues.
    • Understanding capillary pore structure is crucial for studying fluid and protein transport.
    • Previous models often simplified capillary permeability.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present methods for estimating equivalent pore sizes in capillary walls.
    • To characterize the pore structure of capillary walls using lymph protein flux.
    • To identify potential ultrastructural correlates of these physiological pores.

    Main Methods:

    • Lymph protein flux analyses were employed.
    • A two-pore model was utilized to describe capillary wall permeability.
    • Pore radii were estimated based on protein transport data.

    Main Results:

    • Capillary walls across various organs can be modeled with two pore populations.
    • Estimated pore radii are approximately 50-80 A and 200-250 A.
    • Transendothelial channels are proposed as the ultrastructural basis for these pores.

    Conclusions:

    • The two-pore model effectively describes capillary permeability.
    • Transendothelial channels likely represent the physiological pores.
    • A positive charge on transendothelial channels may facilitate endogenous protein transport.
